    I swear I can't tell what the difference is between the Osterley and the Eltham.
    I get, unfortunately, the impression that the head is a zinc alloy one?

    Head is 100% Muhle ;) The difference is simple, the Osterley is perfectly circular, whereas the Eltham has facets. That's it !

    Fantastic photo and I am glad you are enjoying the razor. It still amazes me how it can be so mild and efficient at the same time.

    Thanks, Clint! Will it be more aggressive with different blades? Like the Feather Pro Super?

    For me, the Super Pro blades are much more aggressive. Just take one out and load it up. You can easily see the increased blade exposure and blade gap. It's still one of my favorite 2 blades.

    I like the Kroger AS so much, I thought it deserved a nicer bottle. The stuff is great, nice menthol blast, a bit milder scent than AV and doesn't stick around but 45 mins or so. You can put on any cologne after it and it won't get in the way.

    Clint, quite a difference! I'm going to use the Pro Guard up and then I'll move on to the Super Pro. Thank you Clint for your guidance.
